Abstract 5129
Background
Describe adherence patterns to the medical control processes derived from belonging to a CG situation in a sample of patients in CG situation for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (CMOH), and its consequences with Psychological Wellbeing.
Methods
Descriptive cross-sectional descriptive study. Participants: Women carriers of high penetrance genes for breast and ovarian cancer (BRCA1 / 2), during the months of July 2012 to May 2014 who continue to control the Hereditary Cancer program of the Català Oncología Institute. 176 women. For the adhesion assessment, 3 asdoca questions were asked, based on recommendations and guidelines, the scale of the psychological well-being (BP) of Ryff was used, validated in the Spanish population.
Results
Regarding breast autoexploration, 58.6% of the patients did not follow the correct follow-up (either by hypervigilance or hypovigilance). Regarding the follow-ups in mammographic controls, 51.4% of the patients do the correct follow-up. When analyzing the relationship between breast self-exploration and the dimensions of psychological well-being, no statistically significant differences were found in any case, the same happens with mammographic controls Regarding the follow-up by MRI, 51.4% of the patients follow the correct one. A relationship is found in the dimension of Autonomy and Purpose in life.
Conclusions
The literature reports that there are well-defined and structured medical treatment protocols that allow monitoring of the carrier patients and that these are understandable to them with the final objective that patients have strategies to manage the situation without uncertainty (Ringwald et al., 2016). One possible explanation is that patients do not fully understand the protocols or that there are other personality variables that are modulating this aspect, such as a passive coping style or a high perception of risk (Den Heijer et al., 2013; Gopie et al., 2012). Conclusions Our population, approximately 50% of patients do not adhere to the proposed follow-up measures.
